I found a big Ryobi threadline in the garage that I thought I could use as a muck around reel for heavier stuff etc. The reel is cheap and crap and has a really sticky crap drag. I ripped out the drag washers and replaced the material ones with home-made soaked oil (leather) ones. This has made the drag much much smoother, but the drag knob still sticks a bit and turns a little when line is pulled out under the drag, which tightens the drag setting. Any thoughts on how to fix?
